Can you use a standard 60 watt bulb instead of a 150 watt bulb?

Yes, that's what we used although because the shade is darker it is a bit more dim.

Yes you can. It has a standard incandescent light bulb socket which will accept incandescent bulbs, or compact fluorescent bulbs of any wattage. A great thing about these lights is that the shades are translucent off-white, so if you use fluorescent bulbs, the shade makes them less harsh in color and they give off a light similar to soft white incandescent.

Yes you can. I have standard 60 watt bulbs in mine. They give off more mood lighting. They look great!

I don't see why not. I have a 100w in mine and it is fine. I needed more brightness in the room I put it in so wanted it to be able to accommodate a higher wattage. They do not recommend a three way bulb however.

Where they are used isn't an issue so long as the fixture in which they are used is rated accordingly. By careful to not use them where they are not approved, as there is a fire risk involved. If your fixture is not rated for 150 watts, you may be in danger.

I would also say Yes....just make sure to use the same Watt equivalent as a standard bulb

Surely you can. Any labled wattage (actual wattage) under 150W can be used.

These lamps take a 3-way bulb; mine currently have a 30/70/100. I'm sure you can fit a single 60W if you prefer.

You can use up to a 150 watt bulb is what the manufacturer specifications are according to the spec sheet that was sent with this set. I am just using 100 watt bulbs, and they are very bright, so I didn't feel the need to use a 150 watt bulb. With a 100 foot string and light sockets every 10 Feet, you will find the area you are using in will be quite lit up.

I believe this bulb can be safely used in a 150 W fixture. Look for the watts used on the base of the bulb. The writing on the base of my bulb says that is actually draws 60 W which is only 40% of the rating for you fixture.

I looked on the unopened bulb package that I have. The fine print says, "Use only on 120 volt 60 Hz circuits."

Hello, I believe 60 watts is equivalent to the 13 watts that the 13 watt energy saving bulbs have. I hope this helps.

You can use either. I am actually using a 60W equivalent LED bulb and it's the best that worked for me in terms of lighting and durability. Been using it for years now and nothing has changed with the quality. Here's it: Triangle Bulbs T95121-6 (6 pack) - LED Dimmable 60 Watt Equivalent Warm White A19 Light Bulbs, 6 pack

I wouldn't go much higher than a 60 watt just due to the heat that regular bulbs put off. I have no complaints about mine, it has worked well for nearly a year with daily use, but the components are not the most heavy duty I have seen.

I use the standard-sized spiral energy efficient bulbs (60 watt equivalent). If you use a standard round incandescent bulb, it should be no more than 60 watt max.

Sure can. I have four 60-watt equivalent bulbs in mine right now. There is plenty of room inside the globes...you could even put larger ones in there.

I used a 150 watt bulb without a issue. By the way, you can get this at Mennards for a lot less.

Yes, you can use this item without trouble cause the bulbs are made thinking in 55 watts. Regards.

Thy 60 watt bulb recommended is a low watt, high yield bulb, so it provides more than the normal 100 watt bulb. Very Bright!. Try to look at the answers already sent in on this product, they are enlightening.

It takes a standard 60 watt bulb but I would recommend using a clear bulb instead of soft white. Hope that helps.
